Does this begin to cancel out the TWO pay raises they gave themselves in the past SIX months? I doubt it.
Best News I’ve Heard All Day !
And they’re STILL overpaid.
And how many consultants are making a killing off the state? How many commissions are there and who get’s paid to be on them and why? If this is a once in a hundred year crisis then those cockroaches need to act like it is a crisis. After reading a few headlines from the MSM it obvious that many think that it should be business as usual and that this crisis only affects the private sector.
Let’s hope this is a wake up alarm with no snooze button.
I’m only sad that the margin of victory was not higher at defeating these outrageous propositions.
Apparently the Legislators get to keep their state funded automobiles?
See?....I knew they could do it!
Not nearly enough. 50% should be the minimum starting point. What are they going to do, quit? Fat chance. If they got paid nothing they would still be making out like bandits on all the perks, benefits, under the table graft, etc.
Didn't have any trouble finding it when you wanted to spend it.
Now that’s what we’re talking about, go California.
Nothing more than a small jesture affecting about 125 people that will vote themselves more per deim, travel allowance, etc.
Fire (NO LAY OFFS) 50,000 state employees would be doing something more effective.
The Proposed initiative list can begin.
Item 1. Repeal the Law passed in 1972, Proposition 6, approved by the voters (I wonder how trhey 'sold' that one?), which prohibits the reduction of elected state officials' salaries during their term in office. (comment: it may not however, prohibit the freezing of their salaries for their entire term).
In keeping with fairness and equity, why should state employees, elected or otherwise, get a paycheck for not doing their job?
Private industry doesn't.
Now this is more like it!!! This is progress!!!
gov’t employees pay should be cut. I get so sick of their beaching........”If I was getting what my civilian counterparts were making......” so go get what they are making, dumbhead, they are also working for it instead of sitting on their fat asses blowing people off
